FULL JMC LINE UP …………………….BREAKING NEWS

Every Model of JMC – Collection now complete …

In April 2004 I set out to collect one of each of the 20" JMC frame models. In March 2006, I completed this goal and said “that’s it I am done” I know many of you have followed the progress and helped me along the way …

In June 2010 I decided to add a pit to the collection, and I am very proud to say I have just secured a JMC Cruiser with someone who has seen my collection grow from start to finish and has given me much advice over the years.. So the collection now reads

JMC Micro Mini x 2
JMC Mini
JMC JR Mini
JMC XL
JMC 3.1 XL x 2
JMC Short Standard
JMC Shadow
JMC Black Shadow
JMC Long Standard
JMC DY
JMC AP
JMC PIT
JMC Cruiser

The whole collection is furnished with JMC Bars and seat posts including each of the different lengths in straight and layback and all the styles of bars including DY , FAB and AP. The only exceptions are the Mini’s that use various size powerbend bars and Uni Mini’s

Collection has to be dedicated to Jim Melton.

And massive thanks to all those who have helped me along the way.. You know who you are BIG PROPS AND THANKS

I am absolutely ecstatic to have pulled off the JMC line up and look forward to showing a group shot in the new year, when I can get them all together,

Nice one,what a fantastic goal to achieve. I'm aiming to do the same with all the Hutch frames.....think i'll have a bit of trouble with the" law suit" ali junior though.

You could always make Hector an offer he cant refuse, but I think it would have to be a very big offer !! That hutch Ali junior frame is very cool indeed,

I thought I may come unstuck with the JMC JR Mini, not as rare as the hutch ali,. but they only made 50ish, Jim Melton hooked me up with Don Moor, his son was co sponsered by JMC, Don had acquired a Justin Roos Mini, did not want to sell at first, but when I got talking to him about bringing the line up together , be agreed to part with it, that was a happy day indeed

HUTCHMAN · « **Reply #9 on:** October 04, 2010, 11:29 PM »

A very nice frame set indeed,i could try selling the kids

but i can't live without em,so i guess it'll have to be the wife.

Thanks but no need as i have done the deal

I was going to wait until next year, but i struck a real good deal with my bro in the states so moved early, really happy with what i got, i dont have too much to pay, just deciding if I sould clear my current account now, put it on a card, sell a few spare bits to cover the balance, or pay the balance over the next couple of pay days, I am in no rush, now I have done the deal ... and payed enough to guarantee it as mine :-)

Glad you've got them all now, my heart sank a bit when i read the title first, i thought you were breaking your bikes and parting out

v pleased its the complete opposite

i must admit, i much prefer JMC now to any other old school brand,

Can you post some old pictures again, as havent seen those for ages,
